Given her past—especially what had happened to Jasmine at the hands of other mechanics—it wasn't surprising.
Directors like him were exactly the kind she despised.
"It's surprising P Corp lost. How much damage did we take again?" I asked.
"We exhausted almost our entire combat force. L Corp is more or less finished for now. However, with Severity Level Reduction Technology, rebuilding won't be difficult. Once the patent situation settles, the revenue will allow us to swiftly restore L Corp," she said.
I nodded.
"What about the treated cyborgs who participated in the war?" I asked.
Lyra looked at me with faint surprise, as if she hadn't expected me to care about them.
She hesitated for a moment, then sighed. "Most of them are badly injured, but they're alive. We'll have to rebuild almost their entire bodies. That's going to take a lot of money."
